Tudor set for Lazio

Juventus defender Igor Tudor seems set to move to Serie A rivals Lazio.

Juventus defender Igor Tudor seems set to end speculation about his future by completing a move to Lazio.

The experienced Croatian has attracted interest from The Premiership in the past few seasons but has always failed to concur on a move to England.

With the transfer deadline looming on the horizon, Lazio appear to have struck a deal with both the player and his paymasters.

Tudor spent much of last season on loan at Siena and now looks to be his way out of the Turin giants on a permanent basis.

Meanwhile, reports have suggested Lazio are also considering a move for Sotirios Kyrgiakos - the Panathinaikos defender who has been linked with a move to Rangers, where he spent much of last season on loan, Portsmouth and Schalke.

It is expected that the capital outfit could make a bid for the Greece international, who is in dispute with his club, in the next few weeks having heard encouraging noises from the player.
